"Have you found out? What the hell is going on? ”

In the editor-in-chief's office of the "Jinghua Xinbao" newspaper, Gu Fangping was talking to his subordinates with a calm face.

"Editor-in-chief, it's all clear, it's the new reporter who answered the hotline in order to catch an eye-catching news, deliberately cooperated with his friends and played a trick."

He asked his friend to call the newspaper's hotline and broke the news that Xiao Fei had bribed the editor to get the opportunity to publish in Harvest, and then he had a bright future. Then he himself wrote a hotline press release based on this revelation and used it to make a difference. ”

This is talking to Gu Fangping is the director of the hotline department.

He listened to the editor-in-chief's inquiry, and hurriedly recounted the results of his investigation.

"Oh, that's right." Gu Fangping groaned.

"Editor-in-chief, this is how it happened, it was a student from the National People's University who wrote this news, and it was already determined that he was going to sign it with our newspaper, you see, what should I do now?" The director of the hotline department said.

"Haha! What else can I do? Director Hao, teach me. Gu Fangping asked with a haha.

Director Hao shuddered.

This Gu editor-in-chief is a smiling tiger, and the brighter he smiles, the more bad things are going to happen.

"Editor-in-chief, my suggestion is to directly fire the students of this internship, and after they are dismissed, then tell the story of the incident in the newspaper, and finally apologize to the harvest and Xiao Fei, and by the way, we can get a national attention for our newspaper, which can be described as the best of both worlds." Director Hao said.

In order to fight his way out of the fiercely competitive capital of the newspaper industry as soon as possible, Gu Fangping can be said to have exhausted his thoughts.

In terms of grasping the news, he has put a lot of effort into it.

Other newspapers focus on making great news. But he is known for catching negativity, and he is even more concerned about the scandals of being a star and celebrity.

This part of the people is famous. These people have little power and pose no threat to the newspaper.

In Gu Fangping's eyes. These people are naturally the biggest help for their "Jinghua Xinbao" to gain fame and subscribers!

Therefore, Gu Fangping gave all the reporters of the newspaper a fatal task, requiring every reporter to make at least one piece of news every month that can arouse the general attention of readers.

Journalists who do more news each month and can cause a huge response will be rewarded.

And those who fail to complete the news task will be deducted from the bonus!

If you can't complete the task in the first month, you will be deducted from the bonus, and if you can't complete the task in the second month, you will be fired or transferred directly!

It is under the weight of such a system. The reporters of Jinghua Xinbao screamed like crazy every day to catch the news everywhere.

And the reason why this hotline reporter took the risk and thought of creating such a news was also forced to be helpless. He has been in the "Jinghua Xinbao" for more than two months, and has not yet made a single news with a big repercussion, if he does not work hard, it is estimated that he will leave.

Therefore, he can only think of some crooked ideas to try to avoid this catastrophe.

It just so happened that the news of Xiao Fei's new book "Life and Death Fatigue" came out at this time. Because of the impact of the retraction turmoil, this news is quite hot.

The intern journalist wanted to hitchhike.

fired a shot directly at Xiao Fei, and sensationalized the news that he had risen to power by bribery.

It's definitely very eye-catching.

Just do it.

The reporter asked his friend to call while he was on duty at the hotline. acted in such a rival play.

After the hotline news was made, the young reporter showed the manuscript to Director Hao with apprehension.

Director Hao was very satisfied after reading it, and asked about the details of the whistleblower.

The reporter told Director Hao hesitantly. The person who called the hotline was anonymous and did not say anything.

Director Hao frowned and thought for a while. Let the reporter process the manuscript again and process it into a hotline transcript.

That's it.

This is the whole process of Xiao Fei's negative release.

"Nope! That's not enough! Gu Fangping listened to Director Hao's suggestion. With a wave of his big hand, he said sharply.

"So, what does the editor-in-chief mean?" Director Hao swallowed.

"Director Hao, you have to do a full set of plays, in order to save the reputation of our newspaper, I think, you also have to make some sacrifices." Gu Fangping said.

"Huh?! Editor-in-chief, you won't ......"

"Don't worry! I'm just asking you to sacrifice yourself for the time being, so that the newspaper will hold you accountable for your negligence, remove you from your post as director of the hotline department, demote you to an ordinary reporter, and fine you 1,000 yuan. ”

Editor-in-Chief ......

"However, our newspaper will also reward you, as well as the intern student, each of whom will give a cash reward of 10,000 yuan, and your job treatment will not be reduced, on the contrary, I will give you a salary increase! At the same time, you told the student that the newspaper was only temporarily dismissed, and I would personally recommend a better employment unit for him, and you asked him to rest assured that I am not a heartless person, and in any case, you are also a person who has made a certain contribution to the development of the newspaper! Gu Fangping said.

Director Hao's face showed a look of emotion: "Editor-in-chief......"

He was relieved in his heart.

Director Hao knows Gu Fangping well, and knows that he is a very courageous person, although he is a little ruthless, but he generally does not unload the mill and kill the donkey.

Director Hao sighed in his heart, and could only say that the intern reporter's fake news was not in place! If it can be done seamlessly, how can it be used now that the editor-in-chief Gu must make the move of a strong man breaking his wrist?

However, what the editor-in-chief Gu is doing is actually inviting fame to buy straight and sell fame.

He did this for his colleagues in the media circle, as well as for the majority of readers.

After this move is made, the brand awareness and reputation of "Jinghua Xinbao" are estimated to rise!

"Director Hao, do a good job! In two or three months, I'll give you a new seat. Gu Fangping patted Director Hao's shoulder and said appreciatively.

"Thank you, editor-in-chief."

"Go back, go and do the intern's job, don't let him think too much." Gu Fangping said.

Director Hao returned to his department.

"Director, what did the editor-in-chief say?" The intern who knew that he was in trouble saw Director Hao. He greeted him and asked pitifully.

The rest of the department watched, too.

"Nothing. The editor-in-chief said that the newspaper will definitely hold you accountable. However, the editor-in-chief also said that it is normal for young people to make some mistakes, he said, you are doing bad things with good intentions, although your motives are not good, but you have also made a certain contribution to the development of this newspaper, and the editor-in-chief's treatment of you is: a fine of 1,000, direct dismissal! This is a punishment on the surface. Of course, in addition to this, the editor-in-chief also said that he will reward you with 10,000 yuan in cash, and at the same time, he will personally introduce you to a new job, so rest assured! Don't overthink it. Director Hao said.

"Huh!?" The intern barely believed his ears.

Is Editor-in-Chief Gu so merciful?

The other employees who were watching the situation exchanged glances with each other, and many of them shook their heads imperceptibly: This Gu Fangping's means of buying people's hearts are becoming more and more perfect.

……

A day or two after the negative of "Jinghua Xinbao" came out. Many newspapers and television stations in China have reprinted or indirectly reported on the incident.

For a time, "Jinghua Xinbao" became popular.

"According to the "Jinghua New Daily", Xiao Fei, a well-known young writer in China, is suspected of obtaining the opportunity to publish "Harvest" by improper means......"

Recently, a shocking news broke out in "Jinghua New News". The newspaper's hotline department received anonymous revelations from readers, saying that they had evidence that Xiao Fei had bribed and harvested relevant editors. ”

After the Xiao Fei bribery incident broke out in "Jinghua Xinbao", it continued to ferment. According to a writer in Shanghai, he has a friend who is harvesting work. I once bumped into Xiao Fei and Xiao Cheng reaching an insider trading ......"

These follow-up news appeared in many newspapers.

However, "Jinghua Xinbao" also encountered a harsh response.

Thereinto. Xiao Fei himself issued the most stern statement through the "China Youth Daily": full of lies, shameless framing! In order to prove my innocence, I will file a lawsuit with Jinghua Xinbao on the same day and ask him for an explanation!

And "Harvest" also held a press conference to give the most severe criticism of the ill-intentioned report of "Jinghua Xinbao"!

These two pieces of news also occupy the pages of many newspapers.

Many media outlets have put together the relevant events and published them in large articles.

The vast majority of the media did not believe that Xiao Fei had bribed the editor to get on the harvest page and become famous throughout the country.

They analyzed the whole incident, combined with the "Jinghua Xinbao's" consistent undisciplined way of doing news, and believed that Xiao Fei's bribery this time must be "Jinghua Xinbao" stirring up trouble and trying to fight its own influence.

……

However, what shocked all the media was......

The day after the bribery gate news came out, a news suddenly appeared in "Jinghua Xinbao" that everyone did not expect.

"This newspaper states that after investigation and punishment, 'Xiao Fei obtained the opportunity to publish the "Harvest" by bribing the editor', which is a fake news created by an intern reporter of this newspaper in partnership with a friend in order to complete the performance consideration, and the incident is roughly as follows......

This message briefly describes the process of the intern journalist's falsification.

Then, there is a series of internal penalties.

The reporter who concocted fake news was immediately dismissed and fined 1,000 yuan.

The director of the hotline department was immediately dismissed from his post for dereliction of duty, demoted to an ordinary reporter, and fined 2,000 yuan.

Gu Fangping, editor-in-chief of Jinghua Xinbao, was responsible for poor supervision and was punished with one month's salary...... At the same time, "Jinghua Xinbao" also sincerely apologized to "Harvest" and Xiao Fei, and was willing to compensate for the losses of both.

After the news came out, readers in the media circle who saw the news were in an uproar.

No one expected that "Jinghua Xinbao" would come to such a hand: expose its ugliness, and then carry out a strict internal investigation.

This is, should the bad boy be good?

But in any case, Jinghua Xinbao's move has won unanimous praise from readers, who believe that the newspaper still has a responsibility.

And it plays such a hand, whether it is "Harvest" or Xiao Fei, how can they be embarrassed to hold on to it and continue to fight against it in court?

It can only be a horse.

"Xiao Fei, "Jinghua Xinbao" played such a hand, it was good enough!" Meng Xidong communicated with Xiao Fei on the phone and sighed.

"Yes, directing and acting in a fake news, and then being able to take advantage of the situation to make himself in the limelight and win the general praise of the majority of readers, this hypocrite has done a great job." Xiao Fei said with a smile.

"It's rare for a media person to do such a low degree!" Meng Xidong said helplessly.

"When it first started the newspaper, it had already determined its positioning, that is, to learn from those street tabloids in Hong Kong, to do entertainment news or something, the positioning has been decided, and it cannot be too high-grade." Xiao Fei said.

"However, after such a period of hype, it is equivalent to helping you stir up your popularity again, which is also a good thing." Meng Xi Dongdao.

"Yes, along with my new book, I'm also a household name......

Regarding the performance of "Jinghua Xinbao", Xiao Fei can only say that he admires it so much, and it is rare to be able to play the news to this extent in China at the end of the 90s.

However, you play yours, and it seems that I have also benefited a lot from it, which can be regarded as an alternative win-win situation. (To be continued.) )
